NEW YORK — A 17-year-old boy, one of five people wounded in a hail of bullets behind a Bronx McDonald’s, has died, police said Sunday.
Armanis Valdez was struck in the chest when someone opened fire at Claremont Park behind a McDonald’s on Webster Avenue in Claremont about 9:05 p.m. Saturday, cops said.
Medics rushed him to BronxCare Health System but he could not be saved. He lived about a mile from where he was shot.
Police later learned four other people wounded in the same barrage of bullets made it on their own to the same hospital.
